YAMSified Weblinks in _blank

Hi,

how can I set target="_blank" to the YAMSified weblinks (i.e., with the URL written in the multilingual content)?

I’m taking a look at the source code of the YAMS class, but it’s quite big, and any hints will be greatly appreciated :-D

Cheers,

Roberto

I’m not entirely sure what you mean... The following will create a link to a weblink with target="_blank": [tt]<a href="[~weblinkId~]" target="_blank">link text</a>[/tt]

If you want YAMS to resolve all weblinks to the destination then you can set: [tt]Modules>YAMS>Other Params>URL formatting>URL Conversion Mode=Resolve[/tt]

You can override the default behaviour for individual weblinks:
[tt]<a href="(yams_doc:weblinkId)" target="_blank">link text</a>[/tt] will display the weblink URL
[tt]<a href="(yams_docr:weblinkId)" target="_blank">link text</a>[/tt] will display the weblink destination URL.

Hope that helps.

I just want to set target="_blank" to a weblink, like I do when I have a monolingual weblink :-D
I generate them with Wayfinder for displaying in our site, and not all the weblinks must go in _blank, so I can’t put your solution in the weblink tpl of Wayfinder.

For info: YAMS Wayfinder documentation

I see. You want to use the "link attributes" field in a Wayfinder template. This is normally done via the [tt][+wf.attributes+][/tt] placeholder. I can’t see any reason why this wont work like normal. The link attributes field is not multilingual and should be parsed like normal by the Wayfinder snippet.

A standard YAMS-ified Wayfinder snippet call looks like:

[tt][[Wayfinder? other args... &rowTpl=`@FILE:assets/modules/yams/tpl/wayfinder/docr/row.tpl`]][/tt]

where the contents of the row.tpl file are



So the default YAMS templates already include the [tt][+wf.attributes+][/tt] placeholder. Are you using the default YAMS Wayfinder templates or your own customised ones?

I was just using custom templates and I missed [+wf.attributes+] :-D

Thanks :-D
